This is a huge one for me personally. All those soy boy ninja larper antifas and BLMs and cavemen knuckle dragger proud boys can go play thunderdome away from us normal civilians.

By far, it is always the blm fanatics and ninja bois harassing and getting in the way of normal peaceful people, not part of any protest or occupy stunt, ...
... just trying to get to work, eat, or run a business during that already tough period.

Towards blm antifa, yes. But typically not violent towards innocent citizens.

Meh. The vast majority of the time the pb's were not the ones doing the attacking, but rather the ones hitting back.

Everyone has seen your many, many posts lauding blm while ignoring or excusing their violence.

When people laud BLM it's because black lives do matter.

I don't see people lauding the violence, which could be anybody, but which conservatives automatically decide are BLM, Antifa or both.

Antifa could be more likely, in cases where it is proven any were actually there. They're extremists, like Proud Boys. But when people just throw out there that any violence with black people in the vicinity HAD to be BLM, Antifa or both, it loses its punch after a while. I think conservatives have overplayed that hand.

And again conservatives here cant discuss a topic without making it about me. I swear you guys are fixated. Show me my posts where I have lauded BLM violence. I can show you post after post of me saying anyone commiting a crime should do time.

I wish you could make a argument here that wasnt about me, Id probably enjoy that. but, you take what you get.

And you are 100% wrong. Proud boys show up in search of violence. Seriously you have a wild misconception of these folks.

Proud Boys and Oath Keepers were the on-site tactical planners, directors, and shock troop groups for Trump’s January 6 effort to overthrow the election. They were leading the first attacks on police lines and barricades. These are just wannabe Nazi brown shirt thugs with no place in American society.

It's ok folks, you can oppose BLM and the Proud Boys at the same time. All you have to do is dislike intentionally misdirected/confused fear and anger. Unfortunately, this here boat runs on fear-fuel.
